Big Ivan clearly did not suffer from choice paralysis.
Upon learning from Ram the choice he faced, Big Ivan took less than a second to decide, almost immediately after he grasped what was happening.
With a slight bow, after a respectful salute to Xinghe, Big Ivan very calmly said, "In my view, quality far outweighs quantity, and the same goes for life. Thank you for granting me a new life."
Ram was silent for a moment, then he spoke softly, "Then Morgan is also saved, even without the Ark of the Covenant, he can be saved..."
Since knowing Ram, Gao Yuan had seen him lose his composure for the first time.
It wasn't the hysterical roaring and shouting kind of outburst. Ram's right hand was on his forehead, his left hand on his chest, then his right hand moved from his forehead to cover his eyes. After resting there for a moment, his hand shifted to cover his mouth.
Ram's gaze was unfocused, as if he was lost in memories that he couldn't pull himself away from.
